Typography Tuesday

This week we present some bold letter forms from our 2002 facsimile edition the 1888 Specimens of Machine Cut Wood Type! Manufactured by The Wm. H. Page Type Co. The facsimile was made from a copy owned by noted type specimen book collector David W. Peat (1932-2020), and includes an introduction by print historian and  and proprietor of the Hill and Dale Private Press and Typefoundry, Richard L. Hopkins.

You can read more about the William H. Page Type Co. in our post from last week. Our copy of this facsimile is another donation from the estate of our late friend Dennis Bayuzick.
